EA and BioWare announced today that two heavyweight composers are co-composing the music for Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe – perhaps you’ve heard of them – have partnered to create a musical score for the upcoming RPG. Zimmer is a two-time Oscar-winner, known for his work on Dune, Dunkirk, Interstellar, Inception, Gladiator, and countless others. This will be the first time in nearly a decade that Zimmer has worked on a video game soundtrack. Meanwhile, Balfe is no slouch, himself a Grammy-winning composer who has created music for numerous video games, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Assassin’s Creed III, Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, and Beyond: Two Souls. He has also composed for films such as Mission Impossible and Top Gun.
We can finally say we are in the month that Dragon Age: The Veilguard releases, with the RPG preparing to launch on October 31st for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
